SLIDE 7 PBS - Physical Breakdown Structure
Hierarchical breakdown
- Defines the physical/functional components of field installations.
- Enables an oil and gas production and processing facility configuration scheme to be classified.
- System/facilities descriptions in PBS are only intended to provide guidelines for cost coding, as the systems/facilities
normally are designed and laid out differently and uniquely for each development project according to technical and functional requirements, construction philosophy and project realisation strategies.
- As a system/facility can cross individual PBS boundaries, there is no exact correlation between a system/facility and PBS.
